About me
Hi, there!
Thank you for visiting my page on It's Complicated.
My name is Kinjal and I am a counselling psychologist & psychotherapist based out of Mumbai, India. I'm passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges. Having lived in such a culturally diverse city has given me a deeper understanding of the influences that shape each person. On the contrary, this has also helped me understand that we are more than just the consequences of our circumstances and have the innate ability to shape our lives. I have found that this can be attained through psychotherapy and I now use my skills and knowledge to guide clients through their life paths.

Approach
At the core of my practice is the goal to guide clients in consciously cultivating overall well-being. Together, we work towards building an authentic spirit within you, unlocking the potential for a more meaningful and balanced life.
I employ an eclectic and holistic approach, grounded in cognitive, emotional, and behavioural principles. This approach is designed to guide you towards positive transformations, fostering well-being and growth. Through a blend of therapeutic methods from REBT, CBT, ACT, DBT, art-based therapy, play therapy and ecopsychology, my approach is tailored to empower you.
